The OFC Women's Nations Cup (previously known as the OFC Women's Championship) is a women's association football tournament for national teams who belong to the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC). It was held every three years from 1983 to 1989. Currently, the tournament is held at irregular intervals. Of the 12 tournaments that have been held, New Zealand won six of them. The competition has served as a qualifying tournament for the FIFA Women's World Cup since 1991. In 2007, the competition took place in Papua New Guinea for the second time. Tonga and the Solomon Islands each took part for the first time in the four-team event, which was plagued by withdrawals from six squads. The most recent edition was played in July 2022 in Fiji and was won by Papua New Guinea for the first time. Only four nations have won the trophy: Australia (3 times), New Zealand (6 times), Chinese Taipei (2 times), and Papua New Guinea (1 time). Australia ceased to be a member of the OFC on January 1, 2006, having elected to join the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), and hence no longer participate in the tournament.

New Zealand hosted the second edition in 1986, won by guests Chinese Taipei, after beating Australia 4–1. A second New Zealand team also played in this tournament. Chinese Taipei won again in 1989, on Australian soil, against New Zealand. This edition marked the debut of Papua New Guinea, who lost all of its games.
